Purchase Infinity data extension kit?

Hi
Sometime in the future I intend to get BT Infinity, but just at the moment I am doing some building work where I would like to put in place the 30 meter data extension cable so it’s there ready.
Does anybody know where I can purchase the BT Infinity data extension kit?
Thanks

(corrected ... ryant 704 is quite right)
Put in cat5e or cat6 wiring. If that is terminated with telephone type connections it will act as a data extension kit.
Or it may be better (you didn't give details of your house arrangements) to keep the modem near the current master socket, and connect it via the same cable with ethernet termination to a remote router. There is always some speed loss from data extension kit (maybe trivially small), but shouldn't be any loss with a modem/router connection up to 100m or so.
Either way, once the cable is in you can decide later how to use it.

BT Infinity Data Extension Kit Performance

Hi,
I am due to get BT Infinity installed and I anticipate I will need about 20m of the Data Extension Kit supplied during installation. Does use of this kit make any difference to the download\upload performance? I would be keen to hear of performance of people that use this kit.
Many thanks,
Scott

Performance will not degrade enough for you to notice, i have 3 20m extensions to 3 pc's across the house, all of them report 35mb download speeds without any loss of performance.
Using a Draytek Vigor 2820 router with the infinity modem going straight into it, i don't use the BT Homehub.
The extension is just a standard cat5 cable.
Good luck

QUERY REGARDING INFINITY DATA EXTENSION

Im having Bt Infinity installed on thursday and I want to have Hub in the room upstairs where the pc is located.My master socket is downstairs in the hall. Im very confused after reading some entries on this forum. Is their a charge for installing the data extension kit or is it part of the free install ?? http://bt.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/9652 The information on this link seems to suggest their is a fee for any internal wiring work undertaken (data or telephone extensions). Is their any of the mods who can give me a definitive yes or no regarding a charge for this. Thanks

I had Infinity installed last week with a similar setup to what you describe. The OR guy made the existing extension socket upstairs the master and the downstairs socket which was the master an extension. He used a spare pair of cores in the existing extension cable to do this so no additional wiring as such was required. Everything works just as it should.

Infinity Data Extension - will it spoil the decor?

I'm seriously thinking about Infinity but the master socket is downstairs and the existing hub and everything connected to it is upstairs. Obviously I need the data extension kit. So, how discreet is this? Will the engineer run it along the same path as existing phone extensions? Will he provide a nice neutral grey to match the paintwork and keep SWMBO happy? Will he run it under carpets? Distance from master socket to hub location is about 2.5m vertically and 7m horizontally.

Would this cost money to have the kit installed? I understand it is simply an Ethernet cable where the most standard cable can deliver speeds of 100mb which you can buy for £5.00 or less.
I just want to know as I would happily install it myself if this was the case...
Thanks

BT Infinity Home Extension Kit - Wall socket to Da...

Hi,
I have two lovely house rabbits that I want to throttle, although I've guarded their access to the area, have bitten through the cable from the wall socket to the data extension kit.
The cable between the two appears to be bespoke 2 pin RJ11 twisted pair cable for this purpose and the RJ11 cable I have that fits the socket is a 4 pin connection without a twisted pair doesn't work.
BT have been great as when I asked what the cable the guy who dealt with my call didn't know and just offered to send a cable pack, which is fantastic but I need some spares for a pre-emptive strike against the fluffly ones.
Anyone have any ideas? My google-fu is turning up lots of questions regarding the connection to the home hub.
Thanks in advance.

Its should be two or three pair cat5. You can use normal 4pair cat5, if you cant get hold of two pair. Only one pair is required if its a vdsl data extension for the infinity modem.

BT Infinity - Data extension costs?

So I've just ordered BT Infinity, and it's likely I'll need a few metres data extension to place the router someplace suitable. Now I assumed this was a free option, but after reading the last two lines of this page, I'm not sure. Does data extension cost more to install, and if so, how much?
Thanks everyone

they run it along skirting boards and drill a hole through your door frame,just ask the engineer when he arrives,he will explain everything in detail they will put a new front cover on your exsisting main box...this will have two sockets.
one for your normal phone line and the other for infinity.
Q. There is smoke coming out of my open reach box... so can I have a new one.
A. Sorry sir, The fault is showing at the exchange so your box should be ok.

ADSL Extension Kit and BT Infinity

Hello,
A couple of years ago, whilst renovating the front room, I installed a NTE5 Master ADSL Adaptor and "BT Engineers ADSL Extension Kit" with a dual RJ11 (ADSL+telephone) socket. The extension cable is twisted pair but there are only 3 twisted pairs of wire. Can somebody please advise if this extension setup will work with BT Infinity. I hope it will as my main telephone socket is a corner of the room away from power. I don't mide changing sockets at either end but it's the bit in the middle I cannot easily change.
Thanks in advance
PJ

The cable you have run, does it only have 3 twisted pairs or is it Cat5 cable with 4 but you have only used 3?
Would you be able to replace this cable with CAT5e if you could?
I have recently had Cat5e cable run from the connection plate were the BT cable come into the garage to my master socket so i would also like to know the answer to your question.
Id like to think that 3 TP cable would be enough since 4 TW will give you 100MB network and infinity is only around 30MB.

Doubt in uploading purchase order data using BDC

Hi friends,
how to upload purchase order data.
1) In both BDC and BAPI which one is preferable?
2) for suppose if it is through BDC, how to use? what are the transactions that we can use(SHDB, ME21N,ME21)?
3) To execute the job in background, is it possible for both call transaction and session method.
Thanks in advance
Sreenivas k

It really depends on the number of records you have. Still for a set of 5,000 records my answer to your questions will be:
1) In both BDC and BAPI which one is preferable? - Go with BDC
2) for suppose if it is through BDC, how to use? what are the transactions that we can use(SHDB, ME21N,ME21)? - Yes, its SHDB for recording, SE38 for abap program and ME21 for PO. Avoid SAP Enjoy transactions for recording as you may end up having problems wiht it.
3) To execute the job in background, is it possible for both call transaction and session method. - If you use call transaction method then you have to schedule the job to run in background or simply run it through F9 instead of F8. In case of session method you can chose to process the session in background. However I would suggest you go with BDC Session method for this.

Is the extension kit a ethernet cable!!!

id just like to know like the subject says is the extension kit basically a ethernet cable with the plastic clips at either end.
I ask because i have a way i would like my install to go.
I want to have my router and modem together very close to my double socket in the front room,and have wireless for downstairs, which is where i use my laptop mainly and my ps3 slim then have a wired connection from my router up through my out of use chimney breast to my computer desk which is directly in front of my vent of my chimney breast upstairs(my gaming enclosure).that way no need for him to use extension kit,suits me fine and am sure would suit him and would be a tidy solution also for me,but would he leave me a a suitable length ethernet to connect as i want in place of extension gear.

ok right so now im really confused so we dont know what we get till we get it.
The thing is im not gonna be in,ive gotta leave it to the missus to sort so need to get it right so she knows wot the deal is.
I can only presume that the extension kit would be for the phone line.
What you need is a CAT5e lead which will go from downstairs up through the chimney breast to your PC.
When I had my instal last week I had already laid my own CAT5e lead from where the phone line would come in to the room where my PC i and had the Home Hub setup next to the PC.
All the engineer had to do was fit the Master socket and modem and plug the CAT5e cable in. He couldn't get his head around that and insisted the HH had to be next to the router and my CAT5e pulgged into that to the PC.
I let him do it that way and then just moved the HH to where I wanted it after he left. No biggie really.
If you need to purchase a long ethernet lead the best place is ebay, you can get the length you want for under £5 including postage.

Power View in SharePoint Server - The data extension type for a data source is not valid

Hi All,
All of a sudden I am getting following error when trying to create Power View report using shared report data source (no error testing the connection):
"The current action cannot be completed. The data extension type for a data source
'http://dev/Shared Ducuments/Sales.rsds' is not valid for this operation"
I already have a data source (I had created it after creating my site collection a week ago) and when I use this source to create Power View report then there is no error but I am getting above error when I create another similar data source and use it to create
a Power View report.
Please help me to resolve the error.
Thanks

I am going nuts! I had selected 'Analysis Services' instead of 'Microsoft BI Semantic Model for Power View'

I have an ipad2 with wifi and 3G. My wife and I are traveling in France (Nice) then into Italy. We are unable to purchase a data plan because our Verizon IPad will not accept a sims chip...we are told. We were advised that this model wound work in Euro

I have an ipad2 with wifi and 3G. My wife and I are traveling in France (Nice) then into Italy. We are unable to purchase a data plan because our Verizon IPad will not accept a sim chip...we are told. An Apple store employee here said this model is good only in the US. The iPads here take a sim card. We were advised by an Apple Store Employee at home that this model would work in Europe and that we could buy our service here. That does not seem to be the case. We have been told that we must invest in a modem at 200.00€ and then purchase a separate service plan for each country. We can use the free wifi wherever it is available but we cannot connect to the outside world when out of range. Is there anything else we can do?
Thanks, John

Unfortunately, no other solution is available.

How to Test SSRS Custom Data Extension in TSql

Hi There,
I have created a custom data extenstion for SSRS 2008 Reporting Service.
I can test the CDE in the Report DataSet -> DataSet Properties -> Query Designer -> Run Query.
In the Command Text I pass parameters to the invoked VB code which is of type "BaanstedeCds" then name of my custom data extension.
I can even Attach the Visual Studio VB Code Project that is invoked by the Query Designer an debug the code.
The custom data extension works perfectly in SSRS.
However I have not found a way yet to run BaanstedeCds (with a parametertext) from within SSMS 2008 by using an T-SQL statement!!! Is there a way to use the SSRS Custom Data Extension in Sql Server Management Studio using the dataset type I used in
SSRS 2008?
Because I am leaving the path of using Custom Assemblies in SSMS, for deploying an testing that way is undoable for me.
I is to complicated and in order to properly debug these routines the entire solution of multiple projects is deployed each time even the slightest change has been made to the VB code. Also if I want to deploy from Test to Production it is very hard. I have
to detach the databases etc, ect. Note my previous question about this subject that remained unanswered!!!
Using the Custom Data Extension the problems are a lot less. However I how do I use a routine in the CDS in T-SQL, like I could invoke a routine in the Custom Code Assemblies?
I "hate" CLR routines. I have extreme trouble managing these CLR's as I explained in my post and other posts in the past.
You just cannot build a maagable system that way.
I had to convert all the CLR's (I had a lot of them) to Custom Data Extension Functions, as they do not have all the drawbacks of CLR's.
And using the CDE with all the converted CLR's in it works much better for me in the Report Manager.
However in order to test de CDE I must invoke the CDE in a Windows Form something like this:
Private Sub cmdGetData_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdGetData.Click
Dim CommandText As String = ""
' Get Parameters for CDE GetData
CommandText = txtAdoCds.Text
Dim Rdr As New BstCds.BaanstedeCdsReader(CommandText)
' Invoke GetData Function of CDE Rdr
' Input: CommandText: txtAdoCds.Text = TextBox on TestForm
' Output: DataTable: RdrDataTable
Call Rdr.GetData(CommandText)
If Not Rdr.RdrRetVal Then
GoTo End_Method
End If
' Show DataTable: RdrDataTable (in Excel)
If Not BstOff.ToonTabel(DataTabel:=Rdr.RdrDataTable) Then
Exit Sub
End If
End_Method:
End Sub
'=========================================================================
' File: BaanstedeCdsReader.vb
' Summary: Provides a means of reading one or more forward-only streams
' of result sets obtained by executing a command at a data source,
' and is implemented by Baanstede Data Processing Extensions
' that access BaanstedeIw3-routines.
'=========================================================================
Public Class BaanstedeCdsReader
Implements IDataReader
#Region "Public Variables"
Public RdrRetVal As Boolean = False
Public RdrSqlSel As String = ""
Public RdrDataTable As DataTable = New DataTable
#End Region
#Region "Constructors"
#End Region
#Region "IDataReader Members"
#End Region
' GetData '
#Region "GetData Method"
'==================================================================================================
'We are executing the command using the connection string that connects to the Active Directory.
'Hard coding of the connection string is because it is the same for all the ADs.
'Once we read the data using a DataReader, we place the same in a DataTable so that can be used for
'Other processings.
' Public Sub GetData(ByVal _CommandText As String)
' Output in Public RdrDataTable As DataTable
'==================================================================================================
Public Sub GetData(ByVal _CommandText As String)
' Ophalen Data in DataTabel '
RdrRetVal = False
' Fills RdrDataTable Using _COmmandText
RdrRetVal = True
End Sub
But can I invoke Report Manager Source Type BaanstdeCds's .BaanstedeCdsReader.GetData(CommandText) in TSQL any other way then using CLR ?
Regards Jos
It works, but it does not work (The program runs, but does not produce the desired result)

Hi Josje,
Thank you for your question.
I am trying to involve someone more familiar with this topic for a further look at this issue. Sometime delay might be expected from the job transferring. Your patience is greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your understanding and support.
Thanks,

Question: New Hard Drive and Data Transfer Kit Device

Yep, I go another HDD this time for my lil Compaq Persario 700 series notebook OS Win XP. I bought a DriveWire Univeral Adapter & Data Transfer Kit. I want to know if there would be any issue transferring my iTunes Library to my new HDD? I do have some music apart of my iTunes Library that's DRM protected. Should still deactivate my account during the transfer . . . that is, if it's possible. Thank you for any assistance your can give me. Itunes 10 by the way.

From what you posted, you should be able to set the itunes media folder location to the exHD and then run the ituens consolidate library command.
That will put your itunes library content onto the exHD.
Here's Apple's article on that
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1364
Pay attention to this note from it
+Note: If you move your library to an external drive, you'll need to power up and connect the drive before starting iTunes. If you don't, iTunes will prompt you to either locate the library or to create a new library (which will result in an empty library). No matter what, it's always a good idea to have a backup of the media you have in iTunes.+
That means you MUST have the exHD connected BEFORe starting itunes. WHat it doesn't mention is, it always needs to have the same drive letter. WIndows can change USB port drive letter without telling you it's doing it. Best practice, is to assign a permanent drive letter such as m: for Media. You can assign drive letters using windows disk manager.
There's no need to deactivate any account during this procedure - why do you think you should?
